Govt plans to print exam papers locally

The Ministry of General Education says it will provide an opportunity to print Grades 7, 9 and 12 examination papers and certificates within the country.
General Education Minister David Mabumba has told parliament in a ministerial statement that his ministry has come up with various interventions aimed at addressing examination leakages as this compromises the quality of education in Zambia.
And the ministry has directed all public boarding schools in Zambia not to charge more than K1, 000 per term.
Minister in charge David Mabumba has also announced that schools in rural areas will be charging K150 while pupils in urban areas will be paying K200 per term.
Mr. Mabumba says these changes are effective second term this year.
He said this is in order to help people have access to quality education.
